There is only one country in the world where people live that type of slovenly lifestyle. Would you like me to guess the State? Peter H |

How about any input on the 05-06 models? I have attempted to looked up some news about the 06 models, but I can't find anything on the net, yet. So if someone have the inside scoop on them, please point me in the right direction. And FYI, I am not planning to drop my current car immediately. I am doing a little research on it before dipping into a new car for a better radio and built-in road maps. |

I have read that Honda is planning a design refresh for the '06
Accord. As far as content goes, I am not quite sure what changes will take place. Although I would not be surprised to see the Variable Cylinder Management (VCM) system debut on the Accord V6. The changes between the 2003 and 2005 model are minimal. Side curtain airbags are now standard on all models of the Accord, also illuminated steering wheel controls and redesigned rear taillamps were introduced for 2005. The same 4-cyl i-VTEC engine and 5-speed auto remain the same. Since you are looking at the EX-L Navi or EX-V6 Navi model, you will be happy to know the Honda Navigation system has been upgraded to include more voice commands as well as improved graphic displays.
